Verse
Dust on my skin, the drums pull me in
Bare feet on the ground, losing where I've been
Horizon turns gold, the sky opens wide
I drop every wall, let go of my pride
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel it rising, rising through my chest
Every hour burning, I let go of the rest
Chorus
Umlilo wamalanga, burning in my veins
Hands up to the heavens, dancing through the flames
Umlilo wamalanga, nothing holds me now
Free like the fire, I don't know how
Verse
Sweat on the floor, the bassline is a tide
Strangers become one on every side
Sunrise creeping close but I don't want to stop
Every heartbeat louder till the walls all drop
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel it rising, rising through my chest
Every hour burning, I let go of the rest
Chorus
Umlilo wamalanga, burning in my veins
Hands up to the heavens, dancing through the flames
Umlilo wamalanga, nothing holds me now
Free like the fire, I don't know how
Bridge
No past, no name, just heat and skin
Open hands, letting heaven in
This is the only truth I've ever known
Burn with me, we are not alone
Chorus
Umlilo wamalanga, burning in my veins
Hands up to the heavens, dancing through the flames
Umlilo wamalanga, nothing holds me now
Free like the fire, I don't know how
